In the beginning of the film, the main villain can be seen shirtless while practicing with his weapon.

Hellboy grabs a small insect-like creature and squeezes it in his hand until its head explodes in a bloody green mess.

A scene of a room full of bloody mush and unrecognizable body parts. Small insects are seen crawling around in the mess, eating teeth.

Many small insects are seen getting blown to pieces by a very large gun. We see body parts and blood splattering and hitting the camera.

We see the insects pounce on several men. We see one of them getting his face bitten and scratched at, while the other gets wrestled to the ground. In a later scene, the man who was wrestled to the ground has been reduced to a bloody skeleton.

A man with a scarred face attacks a group of guards with a spear-like weapon, we see many guards get stabbed, slashed, and dismembered. Blood is seen squirting out of wounds, and one scene shows the scarred faced man slice a guard's head off. We see the head hit the floor and bounce, leaving a bloody splatter.

Hellboy and Wink (a large tusked troll with a mechanical arm) get in a brawl. We see the two exchange blows until they are bruised and battered. In a later scene, Wink is pulled into a giant grinder. We only hear squishing and crunching, but in a quick scene, we see Wink's legs being sucked into the bloody grinder and see a pool of blood on the floor below the grinder.

A scarred faced man cuts a woman's face with a large knife. We see a bloody cut.

A demon stabs Hellboy in the heart with a spear. We see blood run down his shirt and a small bit squirt out when the man snaps the tip of the spear off inside of Hellboy's body.

A man stabs a king in the chest, and the king turns to stone.

Numerous combat sequences, in which participants are killed.

the film is lighter in tone then the first movie.

There are a number of fantasy monsters and demons that appear frequently throughout. The title character may even scare very young viewers. There are also a number intense fights, but nothing too graphic.
